4 out of 5 stars Fun Basic Camera   November 19, 2008
Poor Grad Student (Orlando, FL)
I love this camera as a fun basic camera. It takes great quality pictures and there isn't a huge lag time in between taking pictures. I use this as my everyday, just want to have a camera around camera. It's light weight and fits in my purse. This also comes with an adaptor so you can use the microSD card, which is nice since I already had a microSD card on hand. I've already had two friends buy the camera and they love it too. It really does work underwater, but I have yet to drop it.


4 out of 5 stars Great camera for the money   November 16, 2008
Arkster (New York, New York United States)
Great camera for traveling. Shots sometimes are fuzzy, but if you take your time and with some care, the pictures come out great.
Can recommend it for casual or everyday shooter.




4 out of 5 stars Sturdy, inexpensive pocket camera takes good pictures   November 12, 2008

I bought this camera for my daughter because her last two cameras lasted about one year. This one can easily fit into a pocket and the electronics are well encased. The zoom is pretty good, and we are looking forward to trying out the underwater modes. I think this one will last longer if it doesn't get lost first.


5 out of 5 stars Great camera for the beach!   October 31, 2008
Eileen M. (Northern VA, USA)
I love this camera and have had it for about a year now. I purchased it to use on snorkeling trips and have been very pleased with the quality of the underwater photos. So much better than the cheap disposable underwater cameras. The only down side is that the battery doesn't last as long as I'd like.
